Re: Tyan Opteron board with LinuxBIOS for production environment?

[David Hendricks]

Dr. Lu ([e-mail]) is your man. He frequents here, stay tuned and
you'll get to see him at work.

Did you have a particular Tyan board in mind? I know Dr. Lu's been doing
a lot of work on the newer Intel boards, but we had also had S2881 and
S2885 dual Opteron mainboards working quite in our lab at Los Alamos
Nat'l Lab.
